The settlement of who drived a car precedes the others of the process in investigating traffic accidents. These days it is more difficult than before to decide a driver, since an accident-causing driver, an offender, should have corresponding criminal and civil liabilities and thus the offender may hide a matter of fact. When, in particular, one or more of passengers died in an accident, the matter of who drived a car may be controversial. We offered the suggestion that one of direct evidences, the fiber compression on, for instance, dashboards or instrument panels in front of seats inside a car should be used in order to discriminate a driver. The fiber compression on panels can be used to confirm locations of each passenger, since the body tends to impact against surroundings caused by the law of inertia at the very moment of accident and thus the clothes, usually pants, of passengers can be compressed. In the last study, ‘the study of discriminating a driver in traffic accident( )’ in 2001, we experimently saw the characteristics of fiber transference from clothes to instrument panels by impacting a steel ball wrapped up in a piece of cloth against a panel. We saw various aspects of the fiber compressions, qualitatively and quantitatively, according to a variety of fibers and incidence angles on panels. We confirmed that it is easier to be compressed on panels when fabrics, made of the cotton or the wool among kinds of the fiber, impact on a panel and by a certain degree of an incidence angle. Since then, we actively have been using the fiber compression on panels inside a car in order to discriminate a driver in practical questions. This study shows diverse aspects of fiber compressions and its usefulness in practical cases in a period of ten years, between 2002 to 2011. We strongly recommend that the fiber compression should be detected with precision in a careful manner and then actively utilized.

법과학 분야는 사회정의 구현에 있어 크나큰 가치가 있음에도 불구하고 우리나라에서는 이 분야에 대한 인식이 미흡하여 선진 외국에 비해 침체되어 있는 실정이다. 이에 우리나라에서도 법과학 분야와 관련 있는 학계, 연구기관, 수사기관 등 유관 단체들로 구성된 한국 법과학회를 창립하여 이 분야를 활성화 시켜 과학수사를 한층 더 발전시키기 위함을 목적으로 한다.
